About the Designer

Vibrant color, humor, and attention to detail have been Anya Hindmarch's signature since she opened her first handbag store in 1993. In 2001, after winning Best British Accessories Designer of the Year, Hindmarch added shoes and accessories to her repertoire. In 2007, Hindmarch decided to create a fashionable alternative to the environmentally unfriendly plastic bag. Her "I'm Not a Plastic Bag" canvas totes sold out in less than a month. Celebrity fans include Sienna Miller and Kate Winslet.

I bought this Anya "Girlie Stuff" Washbag during this past year in the color red. I thought I was buying the makeup bag that had a section for brushes as it was described as a makeup bag, and ordered it in error. First, I was disappointed, but after I found out what the "Washbag" was designed for, I quickly changed my mind and I kept it. Although you can use it for makeup, or anything you want, I like that it was designed for things like toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, etc., along with "feminine" stuff that Anya refers to "Girlie Stuff". Not to go into detail, but I always pack it when I travel with all the girlie stuff (aka feminine stuff), and it always gives me peace of mind. Very nice to have...
